It's going to be very very difficult to get rid of X. It's just like Facebook today, they have been so well rooted in some areas that it's impossible to break them.

Yeah. I don't see X going anywhere and I'm seeing more and more blue checks meaning more and more people are paying for it.

[Heatman]

Yeah. I don't see X going anywhere and I'm seeing more and more blue checks meaning more and more people are paying for it.

Exactly! There's a lot of naysayers but when you look at how more people are paying for the account verification. It means there are still perks on X they can't leave out because they are not getting it on any other platform.

[Shawn]

Yeah. I'm seeing more and more blue checks each time I get on.

But X is making it hard to see those without them. I don't like that part.

The X algorithm is forever changing and absolute nonsense. You either pay and see some of the people you follow, or you don't pay and you see 70% ads and none of the people you follow. I can't imagine paying for a service like that.

I saw that several of my long-time acquaintances closed their FB and Instagram/Threads accounts this past week for Bluesky. TBH, I'd rather just let it all go down the drain than bother starting over again.

I pay for a few Premium+ accounts on X but in all honesty, it's not helping me. My audience is on there, too, but it's not been helpful.

I am getting ready to buy a new vehicle and looking to cut a few costs to budget better. I think my premium X accounts will be the first to go because I'm getting nothing out of it.
